Located on the banks of the Seine, the nearly 50-meter-tall Wood ’Up tower—with 15 wooden floors—will offer 132 housing units and serves as a true testament to France’s forest-to-construction industry and sustainable urban development.

During the design competition phase, as a thermal and fluid engineering firm, we proposed innovative solutions to combat the urban heat island effect and ensure summer comfort in a glass-curtain-wall tower, notably through the use of spacious terraces measuring up to 40 m².

Our initial studies indicate a level close to the thermal regulation requirement—30%.
